Heavy Stable Isotopes: From Crystals To Planets, December 2021, Vol. 17, No. 6
$20.00Since their discovery in 1913, stable isotopes have become formidable tracers of physicochemical processes at all scales. Steady advances in mass spectrometry have allowed isotopic inquiries to move from the so-called “traditional” systems (i.

Carbonatites, October 2021, Vol. 17, No. 5
$20.00Carbonatites are rare, but important, igneous rocks in the Earth’s crust. They are composed dominantly of the Ca, Mg and Fe carbonates, along with many other minor and trace components.

Geoscience Beyond The Solar System, August 2021, Vol. 17, No. 4
$20.00A revolution in astronomical observation has expanded the horizon of geological processes out from the handful of rocky and icy bodies in our solar system to the now thousands of planets detected around other stars (“exoplanets”). A major result from this burgeoning field is that rocky planets are the most abundant.

Exploring Earth And Planetary Materials With Neutrons, June 2021, Vol. 17, No. 3
$20.00For over half a century, the structural details and the dynamics of atomic arrangements in materials have been determined using neutron-based scattering and absorption measurements. Neutron scattering experiments have contributed valuable information on geological materials and how these interact with fluids.

Speleothems, April 2021, Vol. 17, No. 2
$20.00Growing slowly drip by drip through the millennia, stalagmites, stalactites, and flowstone—collectively known as speleothems—are some of the most fantastic mineral features in nature. Speleothems are also critical archives of past environments, and their study incorporates expertise from groundwater hydrogeology and geochemistry, atmospheric chemistry, climate science, geobiology, and even geophysics.

Shedding Light On The European Alps, February 2021, Vol. 17, No. 1
$20.00The European Alps are one of the most studied orogens in the world. Research over last 30 years is forcing us to rethink our understanding of Alpine evolution: new concepts have emerged that question long-established paradigms.
